I had a go at Jeremy's Miche recipe using spelt and graham flour (and less water).
We ate almost half of it for dinner with salami, ham and cheese - quite impressive considering 'we' are me, hubby and my 3 year-old daughter
The taste was fantastic!
I'm ashamed to say I really mutilated the bread with my poor slashing skills. And no, I didn't use a chainsaw for slashing
I'll have to practice to make this bread as beautiful as Jeremy's...
Here you go:

Well Nina, by the look of it I can understand why half of it dissapeared for dinner, looks good.
Funny how loaves dissapear like that, my wife and I demolished half a rye loaf with dinner last night too.
Hi Nina,
Nice loaf, why don't you get one of Bills Sweeney Todd slicers!
Did you get the other formulas I sent?
Jeremy
I think your bread looks wonderful Nina! Maybe I should try the Miche, I have the book too! The one with the recipe I mean!

Hi teresa,
I have it as well and had a personal dedication, the damned thing has been used so much that it is splitting in the middle!

Jeremy, avatar approved.
Lookout Grandma!
Jeremy, I'd love to get my hands on Bill's lame (ok why does that sound so WRONG ) but alas there's no room in my budget right now for internet shopping.
And I'm afraid my problem isn't the tool I'm using but my technique - or lack of it. I'll just have to practice, practice, practice...
Yes I got your mails, thanks a lot!
Hehe, love your new avatar

I can tell you from experience, that Bill's lame is great! (Why does that sound so wrong too ??)I love how adjustable it is and how you can angle the blade whichever way suits your fancy, Gee this does sound bad...sorry Bill.
Teresa
Yum! Great job, Nina!

I think it sounds good *insert look of all innocence, whatever Carol may say*. Power to Bill's lame performance! Yeah!!
Ladies,
I recall an interview with a certain bread baker where I mentioned sexual symbolism in bread baking, this cuts deep into the mystery of those subliminal and ageless metaphors!

You are probably right Jeremy, however, I believe we were only trying to make Bill smile....and I bet he has a pretty big grin on his face right now...eh Bill???
Teresa
Teresa,
I am no prude, don't worry I think you all are envigorating him like a recently re-hydrated starte he sent me!
Jeremy
Oh........! The visuals!!!!
Quite an imagination that TP!

Sorry Bill, Jeremy here is calling you a rehydrated starter when us ladies were all trying to be so nice to you! Shame Jeremy!
TEresa
Well that's not quite the way I read what Jeremy said.
